Review by The Dalmore

Nose

Orange rind, marzipan and peaches

Palate

Vanilla, crushed spice and candied fruits

Finish

Liquorice and ginger.

Note

After an initial period of 22 years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, the 1981 Matusalem is aged for six years in Matusalem oloroso sherry butts from Gonzalez Byass. This period gifts the whisky with qualities of one of the world’s greatest wines.
